The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply even to countries that don't require visas to enter.

The Trump administration plans to require all foreign tourists to provide their social media histories from the last five years to enter the country, according to a notice published Tuesday in the Federal Register.

The data would be “mandatory” for new entrants to the U.S., regardless of whether they are entering from countries that require visas, according to the notice from Customs and Border Protection.

Residents of the United Kingdom and Germany are among the countries from which visitors do not require visas to visit the U.S., which, according to the notice, could add an extra hurdle for travelers. British citizens and people of other waived countries currently can complete “Electronic System for Travel Authorizations” in lieu of obtaining visas.

Really striving for the most efficient way to kill the tourism industry, huh?

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

Part of the plan.

All part of the Never Travel to the United States campaign.

There's nothing but threats to your basic human rights there. Ask the locals.

Does Reddit/Lemmy count as social media? Why tf does Trump need to know which news articles I clicked on?

[–] UpperBroccoli@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 day ago

Hmm. My "socials". What do they expect to find there? Oh right, probably this:

FUCK YOU, USA. Never coming back.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Nothing they can do can make me want to go there even less.

What are foreign tourists?

*asking for a vacation home rental owner in Florida who mainly hosted Canadians and Germans in the past decades.

[–] CmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

Tourists from outside of the US.

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I can't be bothered to fact check but my teacher once said that anyone who left 20 km from their residence are technically tourists.

Tourists that are not citizens of the country they're visiting.
